When extracting the operator sees little or no (below normal) waste recovery water entering the recovery tank bladder, the vacuum
system is not working properly. When a vacuum system performs poorly, it is usually because of one of the following problems:
Vacuum Leak(s)
Vacuum Leak(s)
Vacuum Leak(s)
Vacuum Leak(s)
Vacuum Leak(s) – Air flowing into the vacuum system past a bad gasket or leaky hose, damaged tank, or a leaky drain hose cap.
A vacuum leak below the water line will create turbulence in the recovery tank, causing water to enter the vacuum motor.
Restriction(s)
Restriction(s)
Restriction(s)
Restriction(s)
Restriction(s) – Anything that blocks the flow of air through the system. Restrictions may also be caused by built-up debris in the
pick-up tools, vacuum hoses, float cage or wherever the airflow is forced to make a sharp turn.
Both leaks and restrictions decrease the quantity of air flowing through the pick-up tools. The air that does go through the pick-
up tools moves with less pressure and volume, so it has less pick-up power.

Vacuum Electrical Components – The vacuum systems major electrical components are monitored by the main controller to detect
any system function failures (error codes). The system components covered are the vacuum motors and vacuum solenoid.
Detected error codes from the main controller are displayed on the hour meter LED display as they occur. Note: Reference the
Main
Control Board Troubleshooting Guide in the Electrical System of this manual for specific fault descriptions and service repair
actions.

Whenever there is a vacuum problem, it’s best to check over the entire system. Use the checklist below as a guide, to thoroughly
check the vacuum system.
Clean built-up dirt from the inside of both vacuum pick-up (shoes) tools.
Inspect the vacuum motors duct (plenium housing) cover gaskets, clean foam air inlet filters and screens.
Inspect the hose between the pick-up tools and the recovery tank, rinse any built-up dirt from the hoses. Replace the
hose(s) if it is kinked or damaged.
Inspect and make sure the gaskets on the recovery tank covers are sealing and not damaged.
Inspect and clean the vacuum motor float cage, float ball and shut-off seat.
Make sure that the recovery tank drain hose cap seals airtight.

(A). Remove the filter
by pulling it out from the housing opening. Clean the filter by vacuum or washing it out in warm water. Note: The filter must be
completely dry before reinstalling.
To inspect the vacuum shut off float just open the right rear recovery tank cover to access the float cage assembly (back center
in recovery tank). The cage openings must be kept free of any debris that can restrict maximum airflow. To keep it clean, wipe off
with a rag regularly or remove and flush with water. The cage is a two piece design and can be snapped apart to separate. Note:
Another method of accessing the cage float for servicing is to remove the (6) (B)
